TAIPEH,

(AP)
—
The
one
and
only
U.
S.
combat
vice
admiral
who
never
went
to
Annapolis
commands
the
U.
S.
7th
Fleet
on
guard
in
the
waters
around
Formosa.
He
Is
Vice
Adm.
Alfred
M
Pride,
who
Joined
the
Navy
37
years
ago
*s
an
enlisted
man.
A
onetime
navy
test
pilot,
he
is
«
bald,
57-year-old
grandfather
with
a
light
red
mustache
and
a
twinkle
in
his
gray
eyes—a
family
man
and
a
churchgoer.
His
subordinates
say
he
is
tolerant,
understanding,
good-tempered
and
relaxed
at
leisure,
and
quietly
intense
but
unruffled
at
work.
He
has
a
sense
of
humor
and
never
misses
anything.
Once,
on
hearing
the
strong
language
of
a
young
enlisted
sailor,
he
remarked:
"How
such
young
boys
could
learn
so
much
foul
language
in
auch
a
short
time
I'll
never
know."
Commands
Respect
While
he
is
"easy
to
know—not
the
dominating
type,"
as
one
officer
phrased
it,
he
commands
the
full
respect
of
his
men.
He
is
of
medium
height,
robust
and
muscular.
He
does
not
use
tobacco.
In
drinks,
he
limits
himself
to
two
cocktails;
takes
them
only
to
be
sociable.
"I've
never
seen
such
a
conscientious
man—he's
always
worrying
about
the
taxpayers'
money,"
said
a
fellow
officer.
Pride,
the
officer
added,
puys
V.
Adm.
Pride
from
his
own
pocket
for
many
entertainment
expenses
he
feels
he
cannot
charge
legitimately
to
the
government.
The
initial
M.
stands
for
Melville
and
the
only
nickname
he
has
ever
had
is
Mel.
Only
his
closest
friends
call
him
that.
Pride
was
born
in
Somerville,
Mass.,
Sept.
10,
1807.
He
attended
engineering
school
at
Tufts
College
before
he
enlisted
in
the
U.S.
Na-
val
Reserve
early
in
Ifll7
as
a
machinist
mate,
second
class.
He
transferred
to
the
regular
service
in
1921
and
in
the
'20s
be
came
a
naval
t«st
pilot.

In
almost
everything
the
Navy
has
to
fly,
including
helicopters.
He
still
is
an
active
filer.
Only
two
days
ago
he
was
at
the
controls
of
an
R4D,
the
Navy
version
of.the
twin-engine
military
transport
plane,
on
a
flight
from
Taipeh
to
Tainan
in
southern
Formosa
and
back.
He
commanded
first
a
bombing
and
then
a
fighting
squadron
on
the
Langley,
the
Navy's
first
carrier,
and
held
various
assignments
in
the
United
States.
In
1943
he
assumed
command
of
the
newly
commissioned
carrier
Bellcau
Wood
and
served
with
distinction
in
the
Pacific.
In

he

and
assigned

Harbor.
Duty
